Hello all

I am continuing to fix my shrouds - it is quite time consuming and a real challenge to keep my motivation

I have finally finished assembling the standard riguings of the rear Master

My technique is to assemble everything first before fitting and tightening the shrouds

Hello all
Continuer to work on my shrouds and rigs.
I replace the bowsprit as Wojta did with some of his.. the original mast supplied on the box is way to fragile when rigging ropes and sails.
Plus mine suffered multiple breaks in the past.
This new Mast is stronger

Hello all!
A last update before I start assembling the sails

I will finish putting the riggings up after I attach the sails
